dimer | two conformationally different molecules of Mtb-ribA2 in the asymmetric unit that form a dimer via their GCHII domains. DHBPS and GCHII functional homodimers form a long helical-like oligomer, but the enzyme exists as a dimer in solution, isolated subunit Mtb-GCHII is a dimer while Mtb-DHBPS exists as amonomer in solution. The N-terminal DHBPS domain of Mtb-ribA2 shows an alpha + beta fold consisting of a central eight-stranded beta-sheet (beta1-beta8) surrounded by seven helices (alpha1-7alpha7) | Mycobacterium tuberculosis |

additional information | an essential bifunctional 3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate synthase/GTP cyclohydrolase II (DHBPS/GCHII) enzyme from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mtb-ribA2. The enzyme is composed of two conformationally different molecules of Mtb-ribA2 in the asymmetric unit that form a dimer via their GCHII domains. DHBPS and GCHII functional homodimers form a long helical-like oligomer, but the enzyme exists as a dimer in solution. The DHBPS subunit possesses an active-site loop1, a substrate channelling loop2, and a pH-sensitive loop3, structure comparisons, overview | Mycobacterium tuberculosis |
